Anand Mahindra shares video of a kid singing national anthem, says 'I watch it every year'
"It moves me as much as the best rendition of our anthem by the most accomplished musicians," Anand Mahindra said while sharing the video.
Ahead of Independence Day, Indian business tycoon Anand Mahindra shared an adorable clip of a little boy singing the national anthem in the cutest way possible. Mahindra took to his official Twitter handle to share the video of the boy, which he said he first received a year or so ago, and since then he has been watching it every year to get his josh up before Independence Day. "It moves me as much as the best rendition of our anthem by the most accomplished musicians. His innocence & concentration gets me every time," Mahindra captioned the post.
In the video, a young boy can be seen singing national with a lot of passion, although he forgets a few lines here and there and stammers in some places. The boy sings the anthem while standing in the attention position throughout the video. At the end of the video, when the boy is done singing the anthem he quickly walks up to the man behind the camera and asks him to show the video with a cute smile on his face. The video was originally posted in May 2019 and went viral during last year's Independence Day as well. Netizens are flooding the post with comments appreciating the cuteness and patriotism of the boy.
